 Teaching your child good oral hygiene habits early can lead to a lifelong healthy smile, but did you know that just because babies don't have any visible teeth, doesn't mean they can't get cavities? A baby's 20 primary teeth are already present in the jaws at birth. And those baby teeth that begin coming through the gums around 6 months help set the stage for future smiles by keeping space in the jaw for adult teeth.

 The bottom line for smiles that are healthy on the inside and out:
- Always brush your teeth twice a day with fluoride toothpaste for two minutes
- Floss between your teeth daily
- Avoid sugary and starchy snacks
- Wear a mouthguard when you're active
- Don't smoke
- Don't pierce your lips or any part of your mouth
- See your dentist. Regular dental visits will help set you up to be Mouth Healthy for Life.

 Your smile is one of the first things people notice about you. That's why it's so important to take care of it. Cavities aren't just for little kids—you can get them at any age. When you consume sugary foods, soda, juice or energy drinks, you put yourself at risk for tooth decay and gum disease. Be smart. Always brush your teeth twice a day for two minutes and floss once a day.

| I found myself being educated and having fun while at LifeSmiles Dentistry. The whole staff was friendly, organized and absolutely enjoyable. I was treated like a friend and not a patient! With out a doubt the best dental experience I have ever had. I can't wait to go back. I think that last statement says it all! |

| Both my teenage daughter and I had our regular cleaning and visit with Dr. Todd. From the moment we walked in the door to check-out time, we were treated with warmth and care. I was actually in my "happy place" - relaxing in a comfortable reclined chair, watching my favorite Direct TV Channel, no phones, no interruptions, no pain. What's not to love?! |
